ICE will be around forever regardless, just as there are still horses, just as there are still typewriters, etc.

Corn ethanol isn't a solution to dwindling petroleum resources. Perhaps it's economical from cane sugar, but not without subsidy from corn.

Not to mention fake apologies are insulting. Somehow it has become popular to say "I'm sorry but...". If the words "I'm sorry but" are uttered, there's a 99% chance that the apology is disingenuous. A true apology is "I was wrong, and I'm not going to do that again". There is no "but" in an apology.
